The Demons must puzzle out the murder before Martian dust buries and destroys the clues. Their search leads them to the distant Power and Services District. What they find there threatens to destroy Maxwell City itself!

This is smart, subtle speculative fiction.’ Now the story continues in Maxwell's Demons, the first story in a new series of mysteries on Mars.
